Adoption Fee Changes
At PAWS we primarily rely on donations and the generosity of our community to help keep our shelter running. The adoption fee we charge supplements our donations, and helps us pay for medical costs, such as: microchipping, spay/neuter surgery, vaccines, and medications. Our more desirable animals, such as puppies and kittens, don't have the same problem finding a home as some of our older residents. Having the higher adoption fee for those that find a home quickly gives us the resources to care for our special needs animals. We strive to keep our adoption prices as low as possible, and we are proud that our adoptions are affordable to everyone. However, we will always provide best care possible to our animals, whatever the cost.
As of Wednesday, February 13, 2008, kittens (under 6 months old) adoption fee will raise to $120. The new price will still include a rabies vaccine (if over 3 months), spay/neuter surgery, deworming with Strongid, and at least one FVRCP booster shot. Expect to see more price changes this year as we search for the best way to save as many animals as possible.
If you have any questions about our new prices give us a call, or come by and visit with one of our friendly staff members.
